I try a search and get. Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in {siteDir}/
wp-content/did-you-mean/database.php on line 41 Will see if I can fix this to use
the plugin. A var_dump reveals on $categories. array(2) { ["errors"]=> array(1) {["
invalid_taxonomy"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(16) "Invalid taxonomy" } } ["error_data"]
=> array(0) { } } I’ll just add an invalid check and it should be good to go. Solved
the problem by adding error checking around the foreach loops. ie: line 40 would
be if(!isset($categories['errors']))
